Alexithymia- a condition where a person seems devoid of emotion because they are functionally unaware of their emotions. By extension, alexithymics are also unable to appreciate the emotional motivation of others, and generally find emotions of others to be perplexing and irrational.

Charlotte developed this condition after seeing her mother being murdered right before her ten year old eyes.
Since that day Charlotte has been homeschooled until the government decides she needs to start actual school, so she enters a local high school as a junior.
